So, today, there are 9,000 first editions in our basement, and thousands of customers and a web site.

And this isn’t even our day job. Ken is actually a systems analyst and, when he’s not booking, he plays clarinet, saxophone and flute in community theater orchestras. Shar is the CEO of the Douglas Communications Group, a public relations firm. When she isn’t toiling over this web site, she directs and performs in community theater plays, mostly at Stagecrafters in Royal Oak. Not surprisingly, it is in the theater that we met. But THAT’S a whole other story.

We live in a 1918 craftsman-style home, with Ken's mom and an adorable cockapoo. We’re avid golfers.
